Liu Sheng was indeed biased against the otherworldlings, but at least he was right about one thing: Hao Ren's people were free and undisciplined. Running a restaurant was a complete mess. Needless to say, Lily and Wuyue Sanba were not reliable either. Y'lisabet was a purebred brat, and her father could not help much. The Nangong couple worked hard, but they were too busy. In the end, only Vivian was slightly reliable, but she could only cook in the kitchen. Everyone was afraid that if she touched money, the Nangong couple would have to pay for it …
After all, it was just a bunch of monsters helping to run the restaurant. From the beginning, Hao Ren did not expect much from the restaurant. He did not even expect the restaurant to make money. He supported the Nangong couple to open the restaurant mainly so that they would have something to do. As for the rest of the family, they could come and help out when they had nothing to do, but most of the time, they would be busy with their own things. At least, Hao Ren had to bring a few helpers with him when he went on business trips to different worlds.
As for the restaurant, although it was a busy day, once the Nangong couple familiarized themselves with the work, and with the help of their children, there should not be any problems.
Anyway, looking at the bustling restaurant, Hao Ren could not help but wonder how the little restaurant would develop in the future …
The busiest time at noon was finally over, and the number of customers gradually decreased. Lily and Nangong Wuyue saw the customers off at the door, and the two ladies were beaming with joy. Sixty to seventy percent of the people who came today were acquaintances, and all of them were those whom Lily had informed yesterday. It was only natural for them to see them off.
The Southern Suburbs was such a small place. It was originally just a small urban area, and now there were less than half of the population left. Most of the people who came here were acquaintances, and the first hurdle of opening a shop here was "business with acquaintances". Fortunately, the people here were used to it. The Zhang family went to the Li family to buy a pack of cigarettes, and the Zhao family went to the Liu family to buy some furniture. It was the norm here.
Lily was already in the zone. She stood on her tiptoes at the door and said, "Come back tomorrow! Ol 'Zhang! Bring your Mao Mao along tomorrow ~ ~ ~ "
Hao Ren rolled his eyes. "Nonsense. Who would bring a dog to a restaurant?"
Vivian wiped her hands on her apron and walked over from behind. "There are even people who bring their dogs to save the world. Why can't they bring their dogs to a restaurant?"
Lily thought for a moment and flew into a rage. "Battie, you're taking advantage of me again!"
Some of the neighbors grabbed Nangong Wudi and suggested, "Your wife is good at cooking. I'll come again next time. But next time, you have to do a good job on the menu. Don't put dishes that you can't cook on the menu …"
There were also people who suggested to Hao Ren, "Hao Ren, I think you should just help out in this restaurant in the future. Don't go out of town all the time. You're renting such a big house here. Are you sure you don't have to worry about going home all the time?"
There were also people who suggested to Y 'zaks, "Daquan … Such a small restaurant, don't you need a security guard?"
When most people had left, Nangong Sanba began to calculate the accounts with the money box. He took a glance and knew that the profit was not much. "Well … I've broken even, but not much. It's not just about the discount … The main thing is that we're selling cheap stuff. "
"Nonsense, how much can a bunch of old people eat?" Nangong Wuyue rolled her eyes. "Peanuts are the only thing that we're selling. The old men can order a plate of peanuts and drink tea for half an hour. I think the ultimate form of our restaurant should be an activity center for the elderly."
There were not many young people in the Southern Suburbs. Most of them had moved to the city or were working in the city. Almost two-thirds of the people who stayed were the elderly. It was indeed a busy afternoon, but to be honest, all that was sold were cheap side dishes. Only the pot of stewed ribs in the kitchen was empty, and it was eaten by Lily. However, Nangong Wudi was optimistic. "It doesn't matter how much we earn. We're not here to make a fortune, we're just looking for something to do."
Ayesha also nodded. Hao Ren was happy to see this: as long as the two of them were happy.
At this time, a voice that had been forgotten for a long time finally rang in the corner. "Everyone, are you all done? It's our turn, isn't it? "
Hao Ren looked up and was surprised. "Liu Sheng? You two haven't left yet? "
Liu Sheng, who was holding a piece of cucumber with his chopsticks, froze in the air. "Didn't you ask us to wait?"
Hao Ren slapped his forehead. "Oh, I forgot. Come on, everyone. Let's get down to business. "
Liu Sheng held up a rune card. "You don't mind if I temporarily block your guests, do you? If you want to talk business, it's better to be quiet. "
Hao Ren took the card and handed it to Lily. "Go and stick it at the door. Unauthorized personnel are not allowed in."
A circle of people put two tables together. After everyone was seated, Hao Ren pointed at the two demon hunters and introduced them to the Nangong couple. "You haven't met each other before. Let me introduce you. This is Liu Sheng, a senior demon hunter. This is Zhao Xi, Liu Sheng's apprentice. They are in charge of the demon hunting organization in this city. But for now, they are friends. "
A strange look flashed across Nangong Wudi's face, but he did not show any emotion when he saw the expressions on the faces of the others around him. Hao Ren then introduced the couple. "Nangong Wudi, former demon hunter. Ayesha, siren."
Liu Sheng and Zhao Xi stared at this amazing combination. But after all, they had seen Raven 12345, so they finally accepted the information. Liu Sheng shook his head and smiled. "The composition of your people … is getting more and more complicated."
"Let's cut to the chase. Let's talk about the fading of the killing instinct …"
The two demon hunters immediately told them about the fading of the killing instinct and what might happen in the group of demon hunters. After they finished, everyone fell silent. Hao Ren glanced at Nangong Wudi. "Do you have the killing instinct?"
"I used to, but it was very weak from the beginning," Nangong Wudi said frankly. This was the first time he talked about his killing instinct in detail in front of his otherworldling friends. "Demon hunters are a race deeply influenced by their bloodline, and we also have a lot of training to strengthen the power of the bloodline. From the beginning, I did not have a strong bloodline ability, and the training I received after I was born was not complete … so the killing instinct was not stimulated too much. "
"That is to say, at least there was, right? But because it was very weak, it was very easy for you to suppress it with your rationality." Vivian touched her chin. "Can you still feel the killing instinct?"
"I haven't been back for a hundred years," Nangong Wudi said helplessly. "It's like covering a person's eyes for a hundred years, the ability has completely degenerated. Anyway, I have no hostility with the otherworldlings now, but I'm not sure if it has degenerated in the past hundred years, or just recently like these two. "
Vivian nodded and shook her head gently. "Looks like you can't be used as an example. You're not representative. If only we could contact White Flame, she should have more detailed information. "
"But do you think she will tell us?" Hao Ren waved his hand. "Compared to this, I would like you to contact Hessiana."
Vivian frowned slightly. "Hessiana?"
"The killing instinct of the demon hunters is the same thing as the innate hostility between the otherworldlings." Hao Ren nodded. "If Liu Sheng and Zhao Xi's' instinctive degeneration 'isn't an exception for them, then I'm afraid it's not just the demon hunters. When I was in the Athens' sanctuary, I heard from a Blood Clan member that the younger generation of the otherworldlings have also shown signs of easing up. This is very similar to the killing instinct of the new generation of demon hunters. "
"Now that the killing instinct of the demon hunters has completely disappeared, do you think it's the same in the otherworldling circle?" Vivian frowned and took out her mobile phone. "To be honest … I really don't want to take the initiative to call that naughty child. She bothers me to death every time."
Hao Ren also knew how annoying Hessiana was, but he could only laugh awkwardly. "There's no other way. We don't know other sanctuaries of the otherworldlings, so we can only trouble you."
While Vivian was on the phone, Liu Sheng quickly asked, "The White Flame you mentioned just now … Is it the White Flame of the demon hunters?"
Liu Sheng's sudden question was a little unclear, but Hao Ren knew what it meant. "Who else could it be? That white-haired chick who can burn people with her sacred flame like eating and drinking water."
Even Zhao Xi, who was usually expressionless, was surprised. "You guys have dragged her into this?!"
Hao Ren said, "… What do you mean by dragging her into this? Besides, we've only met a few times. She's different from you guys. "
After a while, Vivian put down the phone and looked at Hao Ren. "You guessed it. There are also otherworldlings in the Athens' sanctuary who have suddenly lost their instinctive hostility."
